R.D. Specialties takes pride in our proactive, problem-solving attitude. We are eager to help customers meet their specific production or laboratory needs, and often bring new ideas to the industry. Here's an example:

The Situation

In many production settings, there is a need to run varying substrates and coatings through the same machine. Due to variances in materials and/or varying needs, the coating rods need to be changed frequently.

The Problem

Frequent changing of rods takes time, and slows down the production process. Rods need to be loosened using a drill chuck, removed, and replaced with another rod. The new rod then must be manually aligned for accuracy. If the rods are not properly aligned, which may happen in a rushed production atmosphere, inaccurate coating of the substrate can result.

The Solution

RDS developed the QuickCoupler, a convenient device for rapid changing of coating rods. It mounts to the drive motor, and without the need for tools, the operator can align and lock in the new rod in seconds.

Let us devise a solution for you!
